Tsunade's loud voice echoed far, and the Anbu ninja on duty at the door quickly lowered his head, afraid that Tsunade would notice him.
"You guys can go rest now!" Shizune waved at him, then gently closed the door.
"Hokage-sama, keep your voice down, do you want everyone to know?" Shizune said, giving Yan a helpless look.
Yan didn't panic, and asked calmly:
"What do you mean by 'what did I do'? You dragged me to drink, and I couldn't refuse. Now I have a headache, and the worst part is you!!!"
Taking two steps forward, Yan slammed the desk and accused Tsunade,
"Why did you sleep at my house, not in the guest room, but in my room? And the worst part is, you crawled into my arms! At your age, you're still taking advantage of me!!!"
Walking someone else's path, leaving them no path to walk! Yan had to strike first to block Tsunade's mouth and gain the upper hand.
"Is there such a thing?"
Shizune looked at Tsunade in shock. Tsunade blinked in confusion and pointed at herself,
"I crawled into your bed? Wasn't it you who crawled to me, little brat, who lifted my clothes and touched me?"
"Oh my god!!!" Shizune felt her head was about to explode. What kind of nonsense was this?
Yan's face was full of black lines,
"If you hadn't come to my bedroom and crawled into my bed, would I have done that? At your age, you're still taking advantage of me. I have a girlfriend, you know. What you did was .....
simply too much."
"I... I..." Tsunade felt a mouthful of old blood stuck in her throat, unable to spit it out or swallow it. The worst part was, her blood pressure started to rise. At her age, still taking advantage of him? And it became her fault?
"Come here, I will beat you to death!!" Tsunade covered the back of her head, quickly raised her head, her blood pressure rising higher and higher, her blood vessels on the verge of exploding.
"Hokage-sama, how did you crawl into his bed?" Seeing the situation getting worse, Shizune quickly interrupted. She didn't want to see Tsunade go berserk and wreck the office.
Yan was not Jiraiya, who would only run when beaten. He would fight back. If the two of them started fighting in the office, the consequences would be unimaginable. Shizune felt a layer of cold sweat on her forehead.
"How would I know!!" Tsunade felt a bit guilty. Right, how did she end up in the Yan's bedroom?
Shouldn't he have gone to the guest room to sleep?
Or maybe this kid was also drunk and didn't know what happened.
Tsunade found it very suspicious.
Yan continued to ask, "Shizune said I spanked you, is that true?"
"...."
Alright, another person who blacked out from drinking.
The two of them got drunk together and didn't know what they did. She couldn't entirely blame Yan for it, after all, she, Tsunade, also had some responsibility.
But Tsunade couldn't swallow this anger. She felt like she was being despised.
What do you mean, an old person like me taking advantage of him?
I'm the one who suffered, okay?
Let's eat first, and then I'll deal with you later.
After struggling with her emotions for a while, Tsunade decided to fill her stomach first. She was feeling nauseous and uncomfortable.
Watching Tsunade wolf down her food, Yan breathed a sigh of relief.
This matter seemed to be over. He had to be careful in the future and never drink with Tsunade again. When this tigress gets drunk, she can do anything.
"By the way, what did Hyuga Hiashi want from you?"
While eating, Tsunade suddenly remembered this matter. The Anbu reported that he went to see Hyuga Hiashi.
"What else could it be besides the Hyuga clan's issues?"
Yan sat on the sofa, casually crossing his legs, and answered:
"After all, your way of doing things is more assertive than the Third Hokage, and the Hyuga clan's problems have been something every Hokage has wanted to deal with. It's not surprising that they sought me out since I'm the Hokage's advisor."
Nodding, Tsunade said no more and continued eating.
In the short term, she didn't have the time to deal with the Hyuga clan's issues. There were too many problems at hand, and she needed to stabilize things first.
Besides, the Hyuga clan's problems weren't easy to solve; otherwise, they wouldn't have dragged on until now.
After filling her stomach and drinking a cup of hot tea, the hangover's aftereffects finally eased.
However, her mood was exceptionally bad, and she had no intention of working today.
Unfortunately, the situation didn't allow her to slack off. There were too many things that required her personal attention.
Frustrated, Tsunade scratched her head, wanting to strike, but could only think about it in her mind.
Seeing Yan idly crossing his legs, she became even more annoyed.
"If you have nothing to do, go handle this mission. It's been delayed for a long time."
"?"
Yan didn't expect trouble to come his way even while resting. He caught the scroll Tsunade threw at him, opened it, and was surprised:
"Are these cultists really so rampant?"
"Due to the war's impact, the strength of the Hidden Hot Water Village has been weakening, and it might disappear soon.
Facing the growing cultists, they had no choice but to issue a mission seeking help."
"Then I'll go take care of it."
Since he had nothing else to do, he might as well go out and handle this mission.
At this point in the timeline, Hidan should already be a teenager, right?
Yan remembered that Hidan from the Akatsuki organization was just a bit younger than him. This guy was from the cult in the Hidden Hot Water Village.
Later, he was recruited into the Akatsuki organization and became Kakuzu's partner.
I wonder if I'll run into Hidan on this trip to the Hidden Hot Water Village.
Hot Water Village sure had its share of bad luck, having fallen on hard times due to the war efforts of the great nations, to the point where they couldn't even handle the heretical organizations within their own borders.
After securing the scroll, Yan left the Hokage's office building and headed to the Red family home.
"Have you eaten?"
Kurenai was in the middle of lunch.
"I have."
Under Kurenai's stern gaze, Yan lifted her up and sat her on his lap, inhaling the faint scent of her perfume, resting his chin on her shoulder:
"There's a mission concerning the heretical organization in Hot Water Village. Interested in making a trip?"
"No, my squad has other tasks."
In truth, her squad had no missions lately, but Kurenai didn't want to be a burden to Yan.
She was a strong woman, not fond of relying on others at work, even if that person was the man she was closest to.
"Alright then."
The plan to enjoy a leisurely trip with his girlfriend while carrying out a mission was scrapped, so Yan had to think of another approach.
He approached Fugaku, proposing to take Shisui and Itachi out on a mission.
Fugaku nodded:
"It's good for them to get out and about, especially Itachi. I entrust the child to your care and guidance. By the way, we'll depart tomorrow. I've moved the clan meeting to tonight, as today is your appointment as an elder."
Was it necessary to get involved in such matters?
Frankly, Yan wasn't keen on meddling.
But since Fugaku had gone out of his way to mention it and even rescheduled, Yan couldn't well refuse and agreed to it.
